Subject: [PATCH] fs: fix over-zealous use of "const"
Date: Thu, 21 Apr 2016 12:53:29 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20160421195329.GA10362@www.outflux.net> (raw)

When I was fixing up const recommendations from checkpatch.pl, I went
overboard. This fixes the warning (during a W=1 build):

include/linux/fs.h:2627:74: warning: type qualifiers ignored on function return type [-Wignored-qualifiers]
static inline const char * const kernel_read_file_id_str(enum kernel_read_file_id id)

Reported-by: Andy Shevchenko <andriy.shevchenko@linux.intel.com>
